Hello. Your videos are great, fun and informative. Thank you. I bought a boat almost exactly like the one in the video, and I'm enjoying building it. You say in the video that you don't like liners. Why? I use a stock pipe with a liner, but if I can understand the benefits, I'll remove the liner. Thanks in advance.
I can't wait to see this rip! For mixing epoxy try using an empty soda or beer can. Flip it over and mix it in the concave portion on the bottom side of the can. When you mix it up it will naturally run back to the center and not spread out like if you use cardboard. As a bonus the aluminum can is so thin you can actually feel it heat up so you know when it's about to kick off. Now you just need some empty beer cans 🤣
Really neat drive installation there Big B. The hardware is looking great 👍 Interesting choice of motor and ESC. Made me smile when you were epoxying the stuffing tube and you said you want to keep the boat as light as possible. That motor and ESC certainly aren't light for a featherweight rigger, so will be interesting to see if the power/weight trade off works 😉
My next Challenge is going to involve motor/prop/ESC/battery selections in a type of cheap and easy to build hull that has been the subject of a lot of experimentation on my part. I quickly discovered it is really easy to put so much power in a hull that it performs more like the Space Shuttle; launching itself many feet into the air at the first blip of the throttle. Use caution when you maiden that thing......
@@IRONCLADRC You can bet I will not be drinking coffee when I watch that video. It's going to be a rocket, one way (vertically) or the other (horizontally). Either way it's going to be "Must See Video".
@@norcalrc Big B is definitely building a rocket. As for the Challenge v2.0 boats I've been working on, some of my early power systems did just that: Space Shuttle, followed shortly thereafter by fish swimming underwater, and back to Space Shuttle again. It was actually hilarious. I think Big B's rocket will be more successful, but things will happen really fast at the speeds I expect to see with that setup.
I bought a Rigger boat constructor, collected everything, the first experience. It does not drive well, does not develop speed, how to properly adjust the angle of the propeller? Thank you.
The Strut should be parallel to the ride surface, set the boat on a table top so the sponsons are touching and adjust the strut flat with the table top
There fun to mess with but can be a little aggravating at times leaving you scratching your head. Very tight everywhere, when I say everywhere I mean everywhere. If it's a scratch build it takes alot of preparation and planning. If I were to recommend a rigger I'd get a kit with everything included! Like zipkits with the hardware package and use recommend electronics. This rigger and my ironclad rigger was & is a pain in my a&&

I've used soda/beer cans works great. 💪
Just ordered a kit for myself. Just getting into the hobby but I’ve already learned a lot from vids. Keep up the great content big b. 🤘🏼
Awesome! Thank you!

I want to keep the BOAT light basically because of the heavy electronics. It will probably sink into the abyss, first run out.
Lookin Iron Clad brother, nice job

I wanted to run smaller motor & esc

Space shuttle you say? Now I’m really interested
Yea man it should be extremely competitive

Going to be AWESOME BIG B
Another great video for us noobs! Thanks Big B.
Thanks brother, how's the build going.
@@IRONCLADRC Great! You will be happy. Check your email!
Im watching your videos as I install the servo and motor right now. This is super fun building boats...way easier than airplanes back in the day.
I'm doing one of these now and I'm really struggling in the UK to find a strut that only has 2 fixing holes. Any help would be appreciated
Can you do video of you hatch build

Learning allot from ya man thanks
I think its going to rip with that motor setup! Are you going to paint it?
Yes sir one I get it rigged out I will disassemble and paint.
Cool I'm at this point in my build so I appreciate the vid. How fast have you made this boat go?
84mph is my best with this one.
@@IRONCLADRC Nice! Thanks man that's much better than 50 mph 👍🏼
Do you use any sealant on the stuffer tube where it goes into the strut?
@@mikesrcgarage i have in the past, but not on this one
@@IRONCLADRC lol, 🤔 Thanks...
Hey bro did you assemble that when you buy on online or she already assembled when you buy that outriggers wood
It's the online shrimp out rigger kit that needs to be assembled fairly straight forward build.
Hey ironclad how can I contact you to ask you some questions on an boat up grade .I need to explained how I want it to perform.
ironcladedout@gmail.com
Hallo do you have a plan of that boat thank you greetings
It's a shrimp rigger found on ebay and Ali express
The outriggers have been making me curious lately

@@IRONCLADRCyeah I like the sound of the complete kit. I am an experienced carpenter but the scale part in new to
@@IRONCLADRC gluttons for punishment we are
Shits going to rip man bad ass
ผมซื้อมาหนึ่งลำไม่รู้จะเริ่มทำยังไง
